I wish I could say that I was never stupid enough to pull a cap when hot.  I have that stupid scar to prove that I was that stupid.  I hope yours was not as bad as mine.

Label on the radiator next to the cap of my new 1976 Landcruiser read 'Keep Close Usually'...and I usually did.

Hope it heals up good. Believe it or not there are people out there that do this kind of thing. In high school mech. class we convinced one kid to hold onto a spark plug from a 351ci while it was turned over to check for spark. Not very nice but he learned.....once he picked himself up off the floor. Of coarse we all thought it was funny as hell.

Light travels faster than sound. That's why some people appear bright till you hear them speak.
